Nexus Viper RVs For Sale
Nexus Viper Class B+ gas motorhomes for sale at Motor Home Specialist, the #1 Volume Selling Motor Home Dealer in the World and the #1 Nexus RV dealer in the country.
The Viper is Nexus RV's Class B+ gas motorhome, built on the Ford® E-350 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine. It's a hybrid platform that's narrower, shorter, and lower than a typical Class C, but it adds slide-outs, additional storage, and a cab-over entertainment center, making it more functional than a typical Class B camper van. The Viper targets buyers cross-shopping a Class B camper van against a compact Class C, who want the easier driving and parking footprint of a smaller coach without sacrificing the slide-out and storage advantages of a Class C body.
The Viper is built on the Ford E-350 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine and a 55-gallon fuel tank. The cab includes power locks and windows, cup holders, an emergency start switch, an ignition crossover switch, soft-touch driver and passenger seats, wheel inserts and valve extenders, and a 7-inch touchscreen with phone mirroring as standard equipment.
Like every Nexus coach, the Viper uses Nexus's Composite Steel construction. The high-strength low-alloy steel cage runs throughout the coach, paired with one-piece gelcoat fiberglass sidewalls, a composite substrate (in place of wood), a laminated steel-framed floor, a fiberglass front cap with columns, fiberglass running boards, and a one-piece wraparound fiberglass roof. Nexus rates this approach up to 72% stronger than traditional aluminum-framed RV construction, with corresponding benefits in long-term water damage resistance, improved insulation, and increased structural rigidity. Outside features include frameless tinted windows with automotive seal, deluxe 4-color full-body paint, slide-out toppers throughout, lighted rubber-lined galvanized trunk boxes, an outside shower, the Winegard 360 antenna, and 14.5 cubic feet of exterior storage. Laminated kitchen countertops are part of the standard construction package.
The Viper is available in five exterior color schemes: Standard, Skirt Paint, Electric Blue, Prosecco, and Metallic Rose. Interior decor packages include four options: Bourbon, Adventure, Coastal, and Modern. Full-body paint upgrades are available for the Electric Blue, Prosecco, and Metallic Rose options.
The interior runs upgraded flooring, high-intensity LED lighting, upgraded window treatments with night roller shades, black pull handles and fixtures, a booth dinette, and a cab-over entertainment center with a 40-inch TV. The galley pairs laminated kitchen countertops with a stainless steel undermount sink and a residential faucet with sprayer. The bedroom includes a deluxe innerspring mattress on a 60-by-74-inch hinged mattress.
Power management includes a 4 kW gas generator with auto-gen start and an automatic transfer switch (in place of the standard 4.0 kW Onan), two 12-volt deep-cycle house batteries, a 60-amp 12-volt power converter, a 30-amp 12-volt distribution panel, a battery disconnect, an on-demand hot water heater, an electric patio awning with LED lighting, an exterior security light, an exterior TV cable jack, a 30-amp portable power cord, an LP quick-disconnect, and solar prep wiring (ready for an aftermarket solar package or the optional 100-watt solar panel upgrade).
At MHSRV, the Viper is offered in three floor plans: the 25V, the 27V, and the 29V. The 25V is the shortest at 24 feet 8 inches long, sleeps 3-4, and uses a 60-by-74-inch master bed paired with a wardrobe, dinette, entertainment center with TV, and a 24-by-32-inch shower. The 27V is 28 feet 5 inches long, sleeps 3-4, and uses a 60-by-74-inch queen bed master with a separate dinette, an L-shape galley, a wardrobe with pantry, and an entertainment center with TV. The 29V is the longest at 30 feet 8 inches long, sleeps 5-6, and uses a 60-by-74-inch queen bed master with a sofa, a separate dinette, a microwave, and an entertainment center with TV. All three floor plans share an 8-foot exterior width, a 10-foot 7-inch exterior height (including A/C), a 28-gallon gray tank, and a 28-gallon black tank.
Optional equipment available across the Viper lineup includes the convection microwave, an oven, a 100-watt solar panel (with a second panel available for 200 watts total), a Gateway 4G LTE Wi-Fi router, a TV in the bedroom, full-body paint upgrades (Electric Blue, Prosecco, Metallic Rose), electric stabilizer jacks, fully automatic leveling jacks, heated and remote mirrors, a roof ladder, side-view cameras, a glass shower door, the Nexair fan in the living room, swivel driver and passenger seats, theater seating in place of the dinette, the Black Skirt Paint and Cap with Deluxe Graphics Package, the CSA seal, the Oregon State seal, the Washington State seal, and the RVIA label (which is required for motorized units).

Nexus Viper FAQs
What is the Nexus Viper?
The Nexus Viper is a Class B+ gas motorhome built on the Ford E-350 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine. It uses Nexus's signature Composite Steel construction (a high-strength low-alloy steel cage rated up to 72% stronger than traditional aluminum-framed builds) and is offered in three floor plans (25V, 27V, and 29V). It's narrower, shorter, and lower than a typical Class C, but adds slide-outs and a cab-over entertainment center for more functionality than a typical Class B camper van.
What chassis is the Nexus Viper built on?
The Viper is built on the Ford E-350 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine and a 55-gallon fuel tank. The cab includes power locks and windows, an emergency start switch, an ignition crossover switch, soft-touch driver and passenger seats, and a 7-inch touchscreen with phone mirroring.
Is the Nexus Viper a Class B or Class C?
The Viper is a Class B+ motorhome, which is a hybrid category between a Class B camper van and a Class C with cab-over. The Viper has a smaller, narrower, and lower body than a typical Class C (making it easier to drive and park), but it includes slide-outs, additional storage, and a cab-over entertainment center, which are features not typically offered in standard Class B camper vans. The Viper is built on a Ford E-350 cutaway chassis with a coach body, separating it from a true Class B camper van that's built inside a Mercedes Sprinter or Ford Transit body.
What is Nexus Composite Steel construction?
Nexus Composite Steel construction uses a high-strength low-alloy steel cage throughout the coach instead of the aluminum framing common in most RV construction. Nexus rates this approach up to 72% stronger than traditional aluminum-framed builds. The construction approach also includes one-piece gelcoat fiberglass sidewalls, a composite substrate (replacing wood), a laminated steel-framed floor, a fiberglass front cap with columns, and a one-piece wraparound fiberglass roof. The benefits include better long-term water damage resistance, improved thermal and sound insulation, and increased structural rigidity.
What is the difference between the Viper and the Phantom Sport?
Both the Viper and the Phantom Sport use Nexus's Composite Steel construction and a Ford gas chassis. The Viper is a Class B+ on the Ford E-350 chassis with a smaller, narrower, lower coach body geared toward easier driving and parking. The Phantom Sport is a Class C on the Ford E-450 chassis with the larger, wider coach body and longer floor plan options. The Viper is offered in 25V, 27V, and 29V floor plans (24-30 feet); the Phantom Sport is offered in 22PS, 23PS, 24PS, and 31PS floor plans (25-32 feet). Floor plans, finish packages, and feature differences vary, and your salesperson can walk through the specific differences.
What floor plans does the Nexus Viper come in?
Motor Home Specialist offers the Nexus Viper in three floor plans: the 25V, the 27V, and the 29V. The 25V is the shortest at 24 feet 8 inches long and sleeps 3-4. The 27V is 28 feet 5 inches long and sleeps 3-4. The 29V is the longest at 30 feet 8 inches long and sleeps 5-6. All three share an 8-foot exterior width, a 10-foot 7-inch exterior height (including A/C), a 28-gallon gray tank, and a 28-gallon black tank.
How many people can the Nexus Viper sleep?
The 25V and 27V both sleep 3-4 people. The 29V sleeps 5-6. Sleeping arrangements include the 60-by-74-inch master bed, the cab-over entertainment center area, and the convertible dinette or sofa. The 29V also includes a sofa for additional convertible sleeping space.
Why does the Viper have slide-outs when most Class Bs don't?
Class B+ models like the Viper differ from true Class B camper vans in that they're built on a cutaway chassis with a separately-built coach body, which allows for slide-outs to be designed into the bedroom and living areas. True Class B campers built inside the body of a Mercedes Sprinter or Ford Transit van typically can't accommodate slide-outs because the van body itself is the structural component. The Viper's slide-outs let it deliver more interior living space and bedroom area than a typical Class B camper van.
What color and decor options does the Viper offer?
The Viper offers five exterior color options (Standard, Skirt Paint, Electric Blue, Prosecco, and Metallic Rose) and four interior decor packages (Bourbon, Adventure, Coastal, and Modern), each included as a choose-one option at no additional charge. Full-body paint upgrades are available as options for the Electric Blue, Prosecco, and Metallic Rose colors.
Does the Nexus Viper come with solar?
The Viper comes standard with solar prep wiring (ready for solar installation) but the solar panel itself is an optional add-on. A 100-watt solar panel is available, with the option to add a second panel for 200 watts total. Standard power management includes a 4 kW gas generator with auto-gen start, two 12-volt deep-cycle house batteries, a 60-amp 12-volt power converter, a 30-amp 12-volt distribution panel, an on-demand hot water heater, a battery disconnect, and a 30-amp portable power cord.
What is the bedroom like in the Nexus Viper?
The Viper comes standard with a 60-by-74-inch hinged mattress (which can be lifted for under-bed storage access) paired with a deluxe innerspring mattress, upgraded window treatments with night roller shades, high-intensity LED lighting, and black pull handles and fixtures. A TV in the bedroom is available as an optional upgrade. The bedroom uses a slide-out wall on most floor plans to expand the bedroom space.
